When it comes to the NFL in 2025, few players are as polarizing as Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback Jalen Hurts. To some, like Payton Manning, he’s a certified winner, a dual-threat quarterback who can stress all 1.32 archers of the football field. And to others? Well, Hurts is a game manager on a “Super Team,” […]

When the Los Angeles Dodgers took the field against the Cincinnati Reds in the finale of their series, the pressure was on for Shohei Ohtani to not only show up at the plate but also get things going behind the mound, where he earned his 11th start of the season. Looking to put his last […]

When Raja Jackson, the son of Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, jumped into the ring at Rikishi’s then-WWE ID promotion Knokx Pro for an angle that went bad, it became national news.

When the Philadelphia Eagles decided to execute a series of trades on an otherwise unsuspecting Sunday, it helped to reshape the roster in a major way by bringing back 2024 Super Bowl Champion Fred Johnson. One of the big breakout stars of the season, Johnson looked great in reserve duty for the Eagles last fall, […]

And then, there were 53. After weeks of anticipation, camp battles, preseason efforts, and a few trades for good measure, the Philadelphia Eagles have settled on their initial 53-man roster, with 17 more players set to join the team in the not-too-distant future as members of the practice squad. Now granted, just because the Eagles […]

With Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, Shohei Ohtani, and Blake Snell, again, returning to the rotation, the Los Angeles Dodgers are finally settling into a sense of normalcy in the pitching department, with Kirby Yates, Tanner Scott, and Blake Treinin all working their way back to full strength in the bullpen. Could Roki Sasaki soon add […]

After being one of the hottest members of the Los Angeles Dodgers last fall and earlier this spring, Tommy Edman has had to watch his team struggle over the summer largely from the bench, with an ankle injury costing him dozens of games in 2025. And yet, as has been the case with the Dodgers […]

When the Philadelphia Eagles officially announced their initial 53-man roster, one notably absent name was Nakobe Dean, the team’s long-time starting linebacker who suffered a torn patellar tendon in the playoffs last season and spent the summer rehabbing. Fortunately, the Eagles weren’t moving on from Dean, giving the reins to 2025 first-round pick Jihaad Campbell […]

With his final years as a WWE Superstar rapidly coming to a close, fans are wondering who John Cena will share the ring with before calling it a career. Randy Orton? Check. CM Punk? Check.

Cal Raleigh, welcome to the 50 home run club.

After more than a month away from the field after suffering an elbow injury in July, Kiké Hernández is officially returning to the field for the Los Angeles Dodgers, having been activated off the injury list on August 25.

When the Indianapolis Colts officially named Daniel Jones their new head coach over Anthony Richardson, it turned heads around the NFL. Sure, Richardson has been inconsistent to say the least, struggling with his placement while being on-and-off the field due to injury, but he was just drafted fourth overall out of Florida in 2023, and […]

When it comes to the New York Yankees in 2025, few players have drawn as much ire as Anthony Volpe. Originally drafted in the first round of the 2019 MLB Draft out of the Delbarton School in Morristown, New Jersey, Volpe looked like a certified player in 2023, finishing in the running for Rookie of […]

There’s no two ways about it: the Los Angeles Dodgers have had almost nothing going their way in their first two games at Petco Park against the San Diego Padres. Keyword: Almost. That’s right, while the Dodgers are officially out of first place and have been thoroughly bested by the Padres in two straight contests, […]

When Micah Parsons decided to spend the Dallas Cowboys’ final preseason game lying out on a sideline medical table, seemingly napping in street clothes, it quickly went viral for all of the wrong reasons. Now granted, the idea of Parsons not playing in the final preseason game isn’t particularly controversial, as why risk the health […]

Though the Los Angeles Dodgers technically still consider the San Francisco Giants their top and only rival, apparently, no one told that to the San Diego Padres, who hate LA more than seemingly any other team in the majors. The “big brother” a few hours up I-5 who live a life of glitz and glamour, […]

If the Philadelphia Eagles are going to make another trade before the start of the 2025 NFL season, it will likely come on the defensive side of the ball. On paper, it makes sense, right? The Eagles returned almost all of their offensive starters from their Super Bowl Championship-winning team, minus right guard Mekhi Becton, […]

With the 2025 edition of the NFL preseason officially in the bag, the Philadelphia Eagles can officially turn their attention to the Dallas Cowboys, who will be heading to Lincoln Financial Field in less than two weeks’ time.

When it comes to the Philadelphia Eagles’ cornerback competition for the spot opposite Quinyon Mitchell, a name rarely mentioned is Parry Nickerson.

There was a time in the not-too-distant past when it looked like Kelee Ringo was going to be the Philadelphia Eagles’ next great homegrown star. Originally selected in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, with Howie Roseman actually trading a future third-round pick to guarantee his addition, Ringo was supposed to become the […]

Heading into training camp, the Philadelphia Eagles were not a team with many question marks. Sure, they lost offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who was replaced internally with Kevin Patullo, and the team still has some questions at guard, edge rusher, and especially CB2. And yet, in the end, Nick Sirianni’s squad is still the reigning […]

To say Shohei Ohtani’s night against the Colorado Rockies didn’t go as planned would be an understatement for the Los Angeles Dodgers’ two-way star. Taking the field for his first start since August 13, Ohtani was hammered early and often by the Rockies, allowing nine hits and five runs over just four innings of action […]

With the 2025 NFL season rapidly approaching, it’s clear the Philadelphia Eagles have more good players than they have available spots on their 53-man roster. While the reigning and defending Super Bowl Champions didn’t add much in the way of top-end free agent talent, opting instead to grab multiple veterans on prove-it deals, they did […]

In 2024, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was nearly the victim of an unspeakable tragedy when, on an unsuspecting day in May, a bullet was fired near the team’s practice facility, the Truman Sports Complex, and struck his office.

Talking to reporters at training camp shortly after Howie Roseman pulled off another […]

For the third season in a row, the Detroit Tigers have recorded at least 75 wins in the always competitive AL Central, even if they didn’t secure this particular W in style. That’s right, while the Tigers have largely looked like legitimate contenders in 2025, their win over the Astros wasn’t one to write home […]

In a few short weeks, Derrick Henry will officially begin his 10th professional season, with the Baltimore Ravens rusher suddenly finding himself an elder statesman of the position, holding the record for the most rushing yards of any active player in the league today. Discussing what it’s like to have such a dominant force on […]

After watching Teoscar Hernandez miss out on a pair of routine plays in the right field that effectively cost the Los Angeles Dodgers a win over the Colorado Rockies, fans in Chavez Ravine and beyond had one unifying demand: Mookie Betts needs to play right field stat. So naturally, when news broke shortly after the […]

When it comes to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2025, there isn’t much in the way of drama surrounding the reigning and defending Super Bowl Champions.

After a competition somewhat impacted by untimely injury, the Indianapolis Colts have officially named their Week 1 starting quarterback: Daniel Jones.

After heading into the bottom of the ninth inning against the Colorado Rockies all tied up at three, it was clear the Los Angeles Dodgers were going to have to play a mistake-free inning in order to take their game to extra innings. Unfortunately, the opposite happened, with Teoscar Hernandez dropping what should have been an […]

When the Cincinnati Bengals took the field against the Washington Commanders in a Monday Night Football edition of preseason football, Joe Burrow was leading the way for Zac Taylor’s first-team offense.
